Are you aware of training and support provided by the public bodies unit to encourage people from currently under-represented groups to apply and carry out public appointments? And have you any experience of that, or have you identified any weaknesses?

Thank you. The Holmes review also recommended that candidates should be able to use alternative means of application. I know you sent us a video for this meeting. Is that happening? If it is, good. If it isn't happening, should it happen more often?

Thank you very much. Do you have any views on the software used for public appointments? Are there any specific features that can have a negative impact on accessibility or anything that can, in the way that some benefit forms do—they're written to put you…

Nice to meet you, Damian, in person, as opposed to as a 'Facebook friend', in inverted commas. I know what you're going to say for the answer to this, or I'm fairly certain what you're going to say, but I just want you to say it for the record.

I was going to say, didn't they score it? I speak as someone who's been on lots of appointment panels in lots of different places, as probably everybody else in this room has, that you score each candidate on the questions they answer, you add them all up at…

Can I push, Mark, that, whatever the Senedd's lawyers say, unless they're unequivocal in saying that we can, we seek further advice from leading counsel on the matter?

Can I just say that, if we have to raise the big stick, can we get the advice of leading counsel on it before we go? Because leading counsels are meant to have full expertise in this area, and, if we get the advice of a leading counsel, which you're probably…

Well, it surely is in our remit. If it's not in our remit, who can we scrutinise, then? If anybody can say that they can avoid providing information to us, who will still fit into us being able to scrutinise, apart from solely the Welsh Government? Because…

Diolch. Rwyf eisoes wedi codi problem carthion amrwd o safle trin gwastraff Trebanos. Mae'n debyg y bydd pobl yn falch o glywed nad wyf am wneud hynny eto heddiw. Ond rydym mewn cyfnod hir o dywydd sych, sy'n golygu bod lefelau dŵr yn anarferol o isel. O…

I'll just very briefly come back on that. In Italy, social care via co-operatives is quite common, isn't it? And the other question is: I know you're looking at social care rather than health, but in Wales we've had a history of the larger health boards being…

My experience, and you can tell me if it’s unusual, but early intervention, especially with elderly care, where you take action within social services that reduces the chance of somebody having a fall, will then reduce the chance of them ending up in hospital…

The evaluation reports a view from the workforce that statutory care services are 'reactive' and a 'last resort'. I believe in early intervention. What needs to change?
